Rock on With Your Excellent Self!

Once again I am honored to have been given a couple of really cool awards from some really cool blog buddies. First up is this nifty little award that Dixie, proud mom of a United States Marine, gave to me. She got the award from Roger at Idaho Daily Photo who designed the award himself and then presented it to his entire blogroll and anyone else who wanted it. Even though I haven't played Rock Band or Guitar Hero in awhile I still think this badge is totally cool (or is that sweet?, I forget the vernacular!) and I thank Dixie for thinking of me!

Roger said that we could do anything we wanted with this award so I'm going to pass it along to a couple other people who truly do rock - a woman who makes the best brownies eva', Mags @ Ms Maggie Moo Talks 2 You; that cheeky little brit with the gorgeous red hair from across the pond, Claire @ A little Piece of Me; and Carrie @ Asara's Mental Meanderings as she not only rocks but she also rolls right over trolls and other monsters while perfecting her WoW skills. Ladies, you all rock in my book and if you'd like you can click over to Roger's and pick up the codes for this bigger badge as well as a smaller one that goes nicely in your sidebar.

Another nice award that was presented to me this week comes from Debbie Dolphin of New England Lighthouse Treasures. Ms. Dolphin was kind enough to award me the Excellent Blog Award and put me in with some very excellent company that you can find at this post here.

Debbie states that "according to Cyberspace rules in the eUniverse of eAwards, acceptance of this Excellent Blog Award requires me to tag nominate 10 virtual victims excellent Bloggers to receive this award." It is truly my belief that every blog that graces the sidebar of my blog is rated "E" for excellent so I rather hate to just pick and choose ten people to give this award to even though the rules are rather blatantly stating that I need to do just that. However, because my back is giving me some issues today and I've taken some rather nice muscle relaxers to try to bring the pain down to a dull roar, I'm going to fly in the face of convention and just give this award to everyone over there on the right. Should anyone have a problem with that I will just claim that it was the Flexeril that made me do it!

Thank you again to Dixie and Debbie for thinking of me! You are both E-Rockers in my book!
